I did the numbers on a lease calculator for 36 months 12k a year lease with minimum drive off (first month payment, tax etc. roughly 700 to 900)

MSRP $33,465
Cap cost of $30,155
MF .00200 (4.8)
Residual $19,744 (%59)
Monthly payment of $388.99+tax $31.12 (based on %8.)=$420.11

Depreciation of $10,411
Finance (rent) charge $3,593
Total sales tax $1,120
Total lease cost $15,124

If you buy with the same amount and finance for 60 mos with $1000 down at %4. interest your payment is $581.36
